Universal prevention within the school setting can be an effective method to prevent risky behaviour in adolescents. The aim of the study is to analyse the prevention of substance use programs in terms of their curriculum content, implemented approach and mediation mechanism. The curricula of 17 studies that satisfied established criteria were sorted into 3 categories: knowledge, skills, and variables related to self-concept. The programs implemented information is giving approach, a social influence approach and skills enhancement approach. The knowledge, attitudes and beliefs related to substance abuse, and resistance self-efficacy, were identified as significant mediators of program effectiveness. The future direction of prevention development assumes implementing effective strategies of prevention, dissemination of programs which effectiveness and psychological mechanism has been confirmed by previous research.

This study aims to examine relationships among higher education service quality and student satisfaction and their relatedness to students’ behavioural intentions. Slovak higher education setting has provided a framework to this study. Structural equation modelling, using LISREL 8.80, has been performed on student survey data and indicated that both higher education service quality and satisfaction are important determinants of students’ behavioural intentions. However satisfaction mediates the effect of service quality and exerts more significant impact on behavioural intentions. Findings of this study indicate that university administrators should pay special attention to satisfying existing students in order to motivate them to recommend the institution to prospective students and enrol higher levels of study within the same faculty. Implications of the study, limitations and directions for future research have been discussed.

In May 2011, at the Faculty of Chemistry of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan, in the attempt to diagnose the actual causes of student plagiarism, a survey has been conducted. On the basis of the analysis of the responses conclusions can be drawn about whether comprehensive and systematic release of information to the students on the conditions of plagiarism, the necessity of its avoidance, and warnings against its consequences are a sufficient preventative measure and what is the student's view on the actual causes of plagiarism and the ways they should be taught to avoid it? In the article, the description of the tests, their results and author's conclusions are presented.

The authoress tries to establish the influence of the corruption on the students of law at the Lublin University, and what do the students think about that phenomenon. To achieve this goal she has formulated four hypotheses, which have been compared with the data gathered in the random sample of 60 students from the Law and Administration Faculty of the University of Lublin. The data allow the authoress to conclude that the students point out the bad economic situation of the country as a major factor of the corruption. It leads to a conclusion that in order to minimize the negative effect of corruption one needs to improve the economic situation of the whole society. Majority of the students define corruption as an immoral behavior. There are persons however, which will not take part in it not because of the moral condemnation but ironically because of the lack of proper financial means. The final conclusion is that the young generation form their behavior on patterns created by the adults. Examples of successful corruption (or, how much one may gain from the corruption) destroy the moral and social fabric of any society. It is extremely important to pay the students' attention as well as warn them against such exceptionally dangerous evil actions which destroy the basis of democracy, undermine the state of law and slow down the economic progress

The article presents selected results of research conducted at universities in the Opole Voivodship among foreign students. It included foreign students in the full cycle at the bachelor or master's degree. This topic was considered important because of the demographic changes in Poland and the growing interest in higher education in recruitment of foreign students, mainly from outside the European Union. The objective of the research was to identify the factors that attract foreigners to study in Poland and Opole province, identify barriers to their education in Poland and to establish whether they would be interested in staying in the Opole region or in Poland after study. It has been established that the main reason for the students from outside the European Union to study in Poland is the possibility of obtaining a diploma which is recognized in the European Union, which gives a better career start. The biggest barrier to study in Poland is the need to meet several formal requirements (including translation of documents). Over 1/3 of respondents intend to stay after graduation in Opole province, but the same group does not have definite plans for the future after graduation.

The study presents the effects of a 6-month intervention program for training students in using summarizing skills by informational texts. A total of 114 4th grade students and 5 of their teachers, who implemented the program, participated in the experimental group (EG), 76 students were in the control group (CG). We examined the students’ skill of summarizing with a pre-, post- and a follow-up test. All students were divided into four groups according to their general reading competency (GRC) at pre-test: struggling, at-risk, average and good readers. We found: 1) important progress in summarizing by all groups of readers (EG and CG), with a more extensive progress made by readers in the EG; 2) stable proficiency differences between students in summarizing in general and in the elements of the summary (main ideas and coherence of text). The implications for further research and practice are discussed.

Presented article focuses on identifying statistically significant differences in personal characteristics, in relation to favourite music genre and dominant use of music. Introductory part reviews hitherto published relevant research papers. Subsequent sections concisely describe particular components of the Five Factor model of personality. The sample consists of 128 adolescents, the students of comprehensive school. The personality dimension were assessed by Slovak mutation of NEO-FFI questionnaire, utilization of music was determined by Uses of Music Inventory and music preferences were divided to four consistent factors, delimited by foreign research. The data analysis confirms assumption of statistically significant differences in personal dimensions and in mode of music among listeners of various music genres.

The aim of this study was to analyse the direct and indirect effects of temperament personality characteristics on the resilience and the role of self-esteem in the indirect effect. The research sample consisted of 96 university students. The research sample consisted of 96 college students aged 19 to 30 years (M = 21.75, SD = 2.07). Adults Temperament Questionnaire, Resilience Scale for Adults, and Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale were used. The effects were analysed with a structural model. The resulting model showed good fit: χ2 (2, 96) = .3.974, p = .137, CFI = .986, TLI = .930, RMSEA = .102 (90% CI = .000, .250, PCLOSE = .202), SRMR = .045 and power (.98). The results showed a direct and indirect impact of temperament characteristics on resilience. Negative affectivity and extraversion affect self-esteem (β = –.36, p < .001; β = .21, p = .031; R2 = .233). Negative affectivity showed a direct negative effect on perception of self (β = –.46, p < .001) and planned future (β = –.33, p < .001), and the indirect effect through self-esteem (β = –.11, p < .001 and β = .07, p < .01). Extraversion affects the perception of self and planned future only indirectly through self-esteem (β = –.46, p < .001 and β = .06, p < .01). Identified effects of variables explain the relatively large proportion of the variance of perception of self (R2 = .425) and planned future (R2 = .289). Limitation of the study is the small sample of respondents and its specificity (university students), which does not allow the abstraction on the general adult population. From a practical standpoint, it appears that targeted support of positive self-esteem in individuals who are characterized by the less desirable structure of temperament may act as a compensatory mechanism of the temperament’s effect on the ability to adaptively respond to environmental challenges and difficult situations in life. As an ideal combination seem to be the support/development of positive self-esteem and the ability to control/modify (behavioural) manifestations of temperament.

Czech parents place particular emphasis on ensuring the overall quality of life of their child when choosing a school. Our study shows how rural state schools understand this demand. A mixed approach was used in our research. In the first step, administrative data from all schools in municipalities with a population of up to 3,000 was used to shortlist 91 schools in demand by both catchment and non- -catchment families. In the second step, socio-geographic data on type of municipality, online presentations, and other documents of the shortlisted schools were analysed. In the last step, case studies of 13 schools were prepared on the basis of parent surveys and interviews with stakeholders. We present case studies of three schools with different explicitly expressed approaches to satisfying parental preferences through a specific mix of care for well-being and valued characteristics of the rural environment. Our study adds to the existing literature on school choice and school leadership by describing specific developmental and/or marketing strategies of rural schools based on the real or perceived characteristics of the countryside.

Ageism has been generally defined as a prejudice people from a certain age group hold towards other age groups (Butler, 1969; 1975). Although such definitions do not restrict the use of the term to researching prejudices regarding a certain age group, currently ageism is deployed in studies concerning prejudices regarding older people and includes cognitive evaluations (negative stereotypes people might have regarding older people) as well as affective – emotional reactions towards older people, in different instances of daily life. Researchers admit the fact that some of the ageist reactions (both cognitive and emotional) could be captured by implicit measures. Implicit association tests have been used to measure subtle cues of ageism (see Levy & Banaji, 2002) and the validity of these measurements are largely discussed in the international psychological literature (see Greenwald, McGhee &Schwartz, 1998; Rudman et al., 1999, for a review). Drawing could also be used as a tool to research implicit ageism, though it has been approached to a lesser extend to research on ageism (see for example Barrett & Cantwell, 2007). In the current research, we employ the drawing technique on a sample of undergraduate students from a public university (N=165) to assess their visual representations of older people. Examining the features of the drawing allows us to talk about implicit ageism and the way the drawing tool could be a valid tool to examine implicit ageism.

The article has been based on random sample of one hundred students of the Lodz University and Polytechnic. The authoress analyzes the existing legal regulations concerning higher education and the universities in particular, defines the tools and analyzes the phenomenon of corruption as seen by the students. Detailed study of the gathered data brings her to the following conclusions. Corruption on the university level has not been connected with access to the limited goods. It is, in opinion of the students, a price to pay, an alternative to the amount of time and effort to be spent on reading and learning. In the opinion of students it is a 'low-cost' method because when it is revealed, it does not necessarily bear a negative follow-up. Student, even on entering lists against corruption, seems not to notice any relations between theory and practice, that is between verbal condemnation and taking part in the group corruption. Lack of responsibility and self-consciousness of many students is due to the lack of the student ethos, which in the course of time has entirely disappeared. Taking into consideration the above conclusions it is natural that the academic teachers are responsible for reviving and rebuilding of such an ethos. Sadly, the teachers themselves are very often involved in corruption scandals. To minimize such negative developments in the higher education system, one should think about rebuilding of the ethos of students as well as of academic teachers. If the counter measures are not taken soon enough, the universities and other higher schools in Poland will loose the remnants of their prestige and will turn into the assembly-line producing thousands of ill-educated engineers, masters of arts, physicians and other diploma holders.Consequently their diplomas and titles will loose any significance for the future generations.

The study focuses on the relationship between pro-social behaviour and the expectation of pro-social behaviour from the others. According to the social exchange theory and the norm of reciprocity, correlation can be expected. The sample consisted of 80 high school students. Pro-social behaviour and the expectation of pro-social behaviour were measured by means of an inventory. Pro-social behaviour was also measured by observation (respondents had three opportunities to behave pro-socially in standardized situations). The relationship between pro-social behaviour and its expectation was significantly manifested by the expectation of pro-social behaviour towards others in a real situation. People who behave more pro-socially expresses more clearly to other people that they should help others.

The existing research of self-handicapping has explored only the role of interpersonal competition. The goal of the present research of self-handicapping was to determine a) the role of attitudes toward competition and b) the role of the different motives for participation in or avoidance of competition. The authors also examined the role of different types of motivation for education in self-handicapping, according to the level of self-determination. The participants were 748 high school students. The results from a correlation and comparative research, including multiple regression and discriminate analysis, showed that in self-handicapping different dimensions of competitiveness play different roles. Those denoted by fear of failure proved to be more characteristic of self-handicapping than those depicted by the high importance of the quality of task accomplishment. Regarding motivation for education, the prevailing role of amotivation stood out. Intrinsic motivation predicted self-handicapping negatively, while extrinsic motivation proved to be a positive predictor. Factor analysis of the measuring instrument enabled the differentiation of the reasons for education in self-handicapping on the level of three basic types.

Cognitive dissonance (CD) is the discomfort that occurs when two opposing beliefs are held simultaneously. When this conflict arises, one of the opposing beliefs must be altered or dropped in order to reduce the discomfort. The current study examined the relationship between cognitive dissonance and intelligence (using vocabulary subtest scores of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised IV; WAIS-R IV) and grade point average (GPA) in 103 college undergraduates. The ratings occurred before and after the exam. In order to induce the cognitive dissonance participants were given low fictitious scores and shown a comparatively greater average. Cognitive dissonance was measured by taking the difference of the participants’ fairness ratings of the vocabulary subtest. No relationship existed between WAIS-R IV performance and CD scores (r = .01, ns). However, GPA and CD scores were negatively associated (r = -.29, p < .01).

The reputation of every institution depends on people who are participating on its formation. High professional level of the Institute of Ethnology of the Slovak Academy of Sciences is determined by fellow researchers, scientists bringing science to the society, and - in my eyes - outstanding people. They made a big contribution to the formation of the scientific institution as well as ethnology as a scientific discipline.

Procrastination can be understood as an excessive mismatch between the original intention and the resulting action, i.e., the gap between commitment and completion of a task greatly exceeds the amount of time required for successful completion of a given task (Bujnovská & Greifová, 2022). The aim of this paper is to analyse the relationship between procrastination, personality traits and motivation in university students. Personality traits were measured using the BFI-2 S (Kohút et al., 2020). The Procrastination Scale (Gabrhelík, 2006; Lay, 1986) was used to measure procrastination and the Academic Motivation Scale – AMS-C 28 (Vallerand et al., 1989) was used to measure academic motivation. In terms of personality traits, differences between types of procrastinators (mild, moderate, severe) were demonstrated in conscientiousness, openness, and agreeableness. In statistical analyses, we found that higher levels of procrastination were related to: a) lower levels of conscientiousness, openness and agreeableness; b) higher levels of amotivation. Conscientiousness was a significant predictor of procrastination. The contribution of this research could be mainly focused on education, since this is where procrastination needs to be eliminated, which will improve not only students’ performance but also their overall self-image.
